Chances are, at some point after picking up a PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, you’re going to want more storage and fortunately for you, console developers weren’t so short sighted and have given gamers the ability to expand their system’s storage and get more precious space (although the Xbox One has made it quite a bit easier than the PS4) – still, it’s quite doable on both systems.

Being relatively simple creatures doesn’t seem to hold them back and most gamers would agree that these fine furry friends are easy to understand, fun to have around, and great company for the long road ahead.

So now that it’s been a year and the next-generation consoles Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are firmly fixed as the current-generation with their blazing performance and unbelievable high-definition graphics. But what if we apply that power and HD graphics to our favorite games of yesterday? The answer to that question got me to thinking what games would I upgrade if I could only pick five? Here is my list of the Games that Need an HD Remake for Current Gen systems:

The term “video game” is defined as “an electronic game that involves human interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device”. When people hear the words, it seems to conjure different meanings for individual people depending on their game playing backgrounds. Despite what people may think when they start talking about video games, they’d be surprised to learn that they have, in one form or another, been around a long, LONG time – almost seventy years!
